“I am absolutely thrilled to be selected as the featured artist for the Edina Art Fair,” says Abbott. “It is a great honor and I am so excited to be part of it.”

“Cassidy” is a colorful collage of a pin-up beauty featuring poetic text found on a pad of craft paper that referenced 'old worldly' things. “It speaks of love and friendship,” says Abbott. “I felt it was perfect for this piece.”

“The Edina Art Fair Event Committee was able to narrow the selection down quickly,” says Rachel Thelemann, executive director of the 50th & France Business Association. “We all knew ‘Cassidy’ would be a great representation for the Edina Art Fair. It is so fun with lots of fun surprises within the piece.”
